The flight to Debrecen went smoothly, apart from the fact I paid £20 for a bottle of water as I did not have the correct change. However, it was all good as I got the change just before we landed. I arrived at the airport and was picked up by a teacher from Refi (that's the shortened name of the school I am teaching in).
Two hours later, I arrived in Sárospatak, back to the place where my friend Aiysha started teaching in 2012 and loved it so much she returned for another year. I can see why, as it is a very beautiful place with many historical buildings, including a picturesque castle. I soon settled in to my apartment, but I found out that there was a problem with my getting out of my flat as I thought my keys didn't work!
This situation is now settled as I am able to get in and out of my flat, without fear of being locked in! Last week I was invited to the former headmaster's house for dinner and I thoroughly enjoyed speaking with him again. His English is limited, however he said he would like to learn more English so he wants me to teach him.
It's very quiet just now as school hasn't started, but I hopefully will update more soon. My blog posts haven't been as regular as I have to go to a cafe to get internet, but I look forward to teaching and starting this new adventure.
